   Hi,

   I think its a syntax error in your code try this line instead.

   <?php wp_dropdown_categories('hide_empty =0&child_of=5'); ?>

   hi
   Thanks for that!
   It still isn't bringing up all the subcategories.
   Only the ones with articles which is not what I want.
   the hide_empty doesn't seem to be working...

   Hi,

   Try removing the space after hide_empty:

   <?php wp_dropdown_categories('hide_empty=0&child_of=5'); ?>

   I can't see why this wouldn't work, as long as you have your child id correct.

   Regards

   It's always the simplest of things!!!
   cheers for that the space was the culprit!
